How to use your Philips nebulizer compressor

If using a facemask, hold it over

your mouth and nose whilst placing

the elastic strap around the back of

your head.

Your treatment may be paused

by turning o the compressor and

securely placing the nebulizer in

the holder.

If using a mouthpiece, place it

between your lips.

‘spluttering’ noise. Your treatment

has now nished.

Sit upright in a chair or in bed and

relax as much as possible. When

ready, turn on the compressor and

take normal steady breaths.

Notes:

• When using, always keep your

compressor on a rm surface

avoid dust being drawn in.

• Be careful not to block the vents on

the outside of the compressor

free by wiping with a damp cloth

• There will be a small amount of

medication left in the nebulizer at

the end of your treatment. This is

perfectly normal.

Cleaning your Philips nebulizer

The following should help to keep your system working eectively and reliably. These cleaning instructions are

recommended for both the reusable and disposable version of the Philips SideStream nebulizer.

After every use, disconnect the

nebulizer from the tubing. Turn on

the compressor for a short period to

clear any moisture from the tubing.

Wash the nebulizer and mouthpiece

in warm, soapy water using regular

dishwashing liquid. Clear the ne

jet holes by rinsing under clean,

cold running water and shake o

any excess.

Remove the tubing and the

mouthpiece or facemask from the

nebulizer. Unscrew the nebulizer

into two parts.

It is essential that the nebulizer

parts are completely dry before

reassembly.

If using a facemask, wipe it with a

damp cloth.

Important: do not wash the tubing.

To maintain eectiveness, it is a

good idea to store nebulizer parts

between uses in a clean, dry,

environment.

Looking after your nebulizer

Cleaning your Philips nebulizer

It is important to change your tubing

and mouthpiece/facemask regularly.

To ensure optimum performance,

reusable nebulizers should be boiled

with two drops of dish washing liquid

for 10 minutes once a week.
